Chapter 177: Lawlessness

The first case was tried and surprised, above the lobby, Lu Tianming and Liu Zhongji were very surprised, they didn't expect Su Tiancheng to make such a decision, outside the county office, there were more discussions, and the vast majority of those who supported such a decision were made, but there were also different opinions, for example, the fourth son of Donglin, Liu Yunqing supported such a result in his heart, but the other three were obviously dissatisfied, thinking that this did not follow the ancestral system to judge the case, and the family property was naturally inherited by the son, and the son-in-law who entered the family was in a humble position, and he was an outsider. There should be no share of the property.

This time, Huang Tingping, Yi Ligao and Zou Pingzhang's views were ridiculed, in Nanjing City, the four sons of Donglin are also famous, and what they say is naturally paid attention to, if it is not too outrageous, people still have to listen.

Opposing the opinions of Huang Tingping and the three people, mainly some nearby neighbors, there are also scholars, who understand the reason, and know the real situation of Lu Dao, they think that the magistrate of the county decides the case, according to the actual situation, it is very worthy of praise, and even some scholars ridicule Huang Tingping and others, worthy of being a clear stream, they know how to talk about the Tao and talk about the truth, as for the actual situation, the four sons of Donglin will not care, as long as they follow the sage's group training and move the sage out, they can judge all the cases.

The quarrel outside does not affect the handling of cases inside the county office.

Two hours have passed, and many litigators involved in the lawsuit have become more and more frightened, and they all feel that this magistrate is really not simple, very familiar with the facts of the case, and the words of rebuttal put forward are also to the point, talking to the key place, the most powerful thing is that the magistrate of the county judges the case, not sticking to the provisions, and is from the perspective of the parents. That is, starting from the actual situation, the bitter lord was sometimes stunned and speechless when asked.

In the end, both parties were convinced, and no one raised any objections.

Advocates are long-term helpers in litigation. I've seen too many magistrates, some magistrates, although the level is very high, and they have read a lot, but they don't necessarily understand the following situation, and they are often disturbed by the complex paper, and they are unwilling to go deep into it, and finally they are led by the nose, but this magistrate. There is no such thing.

Being able to make complex things simple, or when necessary, make simple things very complicated, these are all skills.

After several successive cases were tried, Lu Tianming and Liu Joong Ki came back to their senses.

Especially Liu Zhongji, Su Tiancheng once talked to him specifically. When you should be flexible and when you need to be persistent. From today's verdict, he vaguely understands that it seems that there are still many things he needs to learn.

At noon, Su Tiancheng was ready to order to retreat.

The two-hour trial of the case was highly concentrated. It's a bit tiring indeed.

At this time, Su Jun led a pair of middle-aged men and women in, and the faces of the man and woman were full of tears and looked panicked. The woman's face turned even paler. The man's face was still bruised, as if he had been beaten.

Entering the lobby, the two of them fell to their knees.

"Please, Lord Qingtian, save the daughter of the grass people......"

As soon as the man said this, the woman began to cry, and she was crying.

"Don't cry, have you brought papers?"

"Adults are above, what just happened, the grass people didn't have time to write a pleading, I implore the adults to make decisions for the grass people......"

The woman also cried and spoke.

"The master saves the slave's daughter, if it's too late, the slave doesn't want to live......"

Su Tiancheng frowned, after all, this is the lobby, crying and crying, and he can't explain things clearly, which is unelegant.

"If you have any grievances, speak out slowly, don't be in a hurry."

The man was more sober and spoke quickly, it doesn't matter if he doesn't say it, after saying it, Su Tiancheng was dumbfounded, he didn't expect such a thing to happen in Jiangning County.

It turned out that the middle-aged couple were both residents of Jiangning County, the youngest daughter was good-looking, fifteen years old this year, not yet married, had promised to be married, and was also a little bored at home.

In this process, the middle-aged man was beaten by the other party in order to save his daughter.

The couple lay on the ground and watched as their daughter was snatched away.

The person who snatched the middle-aged couple's youngest daughter is named Zhou Shunqing.

After the middle-aged couple finished speaking, Su Tiancheng sensitively noticed that the atmosphere in the lobby was a little wrong, and the official did not show his anger, and he even read the worry on Lu Tianming's face.

Only Yoo Joong Ki and Su Jun had an indignant look on their faces.

According to the rules, after Su Tiancheng took over such a case, it will be tried again when he is promoted to the court next time, after all, he can't listen to one-sided words, and he needs to be investigated, but his children have been snatched away, if the situation is true, what to do if he is snatched away, he can think of it with his ass.

This is a typical special event.

Impulsiveness is the devil.

Su Tiancheng thought for a while, called the torture room clerk, showed the record to the couple, signed and detained, and asked the couple to wait outside the lobby for the time being.

Back in the second hall, Su Tiancheng invited Lu Tianming.

"Lord Lu, what kind of person is this Zhou Shunqing?"

"My lord, this Zhou Shunqing is very famous in Jiangning County, he is the nephew of Lord Zhou."

Su Tiancheng frowned slightly, he had heard that Zhou Yanru was a short-sighted person, and his subordinates and relatives were a little lawless, it seems that today's incident is very likely to be true.

"So, Zhou Shunqing has also committed some things before, is that true?"

Lu Tianming lowered his head and did not speak, and his silence was tantamount to acquiescence.

"Lord Lu, if there is any other situation, you can tell me together."

"My lord, Zhou Shunqing is a prisoner of Guozijian, the ambassador of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites Casting and Printing Bureau, his family lives in the suburbs, last year and the year before last, there were people who sued him, but they were all inconclusive, once because of the forcible occupation of other people's farmland, once because of a fight with others, Zhou Shunqing's mansion has a lot of courtyards, heavily guarded, and he has a very good relationship with many officials of the six departments in Nanjing, even in Yingtianfu."

In Su Tiancheng's mind, the impression of the underworld appeared, the ambassador of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites Casting and Printing Bureau was just an unpopular official, and it was impossible for him to be so arrogant, it was nothing more than a strong relationship behind him.

"Do you mean to remind the official to be cautious?"

"The lower official doesn't dare, it's just that what the lower official said is the actual situation."

"There may have been more than these two things before, but they didn't deal with it in the end."

Lu Tianming nodded and did not speak.

This is a typical protection of officials and officials, Zhou Yanru is the first assistant of the cabinet, not to mention the county, even Ying Tianfu Yin, Nanjing Liubu Shangshu, and the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, including the eunuchs who guard the town, will not easily offend him. Zhou Shunqing is Zhou Yanru's own nephew, I don't know that Lu Dao is low-key, but arrogant, I don't know what Zhou Yanru is teaching him.

Su Tiancheng's face showed a sneer.

Luck is really good, ascending to the court to handle the case, Yu Lu saw such a thing, that Zhou Shunqing, don't you know that Lu Dao is going to the court to handle the case, in such a situation, he actually dares to rob the people's girls in front of the public, which is tantamount to slapping himself hard, and at least the respect is gone.

Do you think I, Su Tiancheng, am afraid of you, afraid of Zhou Yanru?

"Lord Lu, take out all the two cases from last year, and this official will try them today."

"Be careful."

"Don't say so much, all the case files, all the files, the official will try it immediately."

It doesn't matter if you don't try it, after a trial, Su Tiancheng's face turned pale with anger.

It turned out that the two bitter masters who had sued Zhou Shunqing before, one of them was beaten into a cripple and couldn't get out of bed, so he was carried to the county office, and he kept saying that he had done something wrong and had nothing to do with Zhou Shunqing, and one was only in his thirties, his hair was all white, and he looked almost like an old man.

An hour passed, and many of Zhou Shunqing's evil deeds slowly appeared.

Above the lobby, it was already very quiet, and everyone didn't expect that the magistrate would dare to try Zhou Shunqing's case, who didn't know that Zhou Shunqing had been rampant in Jiangning County for several years because he had something to rely on, and the yamen at all levels turned a blind eye. If he really provoked Zhou Shunqing this time and let Zhou Yanru come forward, would Su Tiancheng still be able to be the magistrate of Jiangning County.

"Su Jun, arrange for the warden, take the summons from the county government, go to the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, and summon Zhou Shunqing."

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.

Outside the county office, there are more and more onlookers, and there are already county officials, and the news has been passed out, the county magistrate actually summoned Zhou Shunqing, and for a while, the discussion was all over the sky, it seems that this magistrate is really not afraid of anything.

The reaction of the fourth prince of Donglin was still a little special, Liu Yunqing fell into deep thought, Zou Pingzhang was the youngest, and couldn't help but speak in a low voice.

"Master Su also doesn't know that the sky is thick, and he dares to move Zhou Shunqing, I'm afraid that the board will be held high, and there will be no result in the end."

"What nonsense, Master Su is the master of the people, not afraid of offending the boss, this kind of courage, you and I are ashamed, I am still here to say cool things, if the teacher under Jiuquan knows the Tao, he will not recognize you as a student."

Zou Pingzhang glared at Liu Yunqing and was a little unconvinced.

"I'm telling the truth, what did the eldest brother say about it, the former magistrate, didn't he also want to deal with it impartially, what was the final situation, it wasn't a dead end."

Zou Pingzhang's voice was a little loud, and the people around him heard it, this time, no one spoke, the facts were in front of him, although the county government summoned Zhou Shunqing, but what is the final result of the trial, we still need to wait, if it is not over, it shows that this term of the magistrate is not much different from before, he is still afraid of power, and he is still protected by officials.

The atmosphere outside the county government is a little dignified, and people are looking forward to something.

The same is true in the lobby inside the county office. (To be continued.) )
